Games that got better over time for you

TF2, game is already 9 years old. I think some may not know that it started as part of the Orange Box pack with only 6 maps and base weapons. I felt disappointed that this was it. This was the sequel to my TF Classic, it played differently, but I grew on to love the gameplay. They added maps weapons, but then came the hats and item craze also f2p. I won't begrudge them for the latter and I didn't even mind f2p aspect with noobs for me to feast on. The items didn't detract too much for me from liking it and the best part is that its kept the community afloat for so long. I still boot it up once in a while to play and its always fun probably my one of my all time fave actually.

BF3, I knew the netcode suck and it suffered its own problems. Still I loved it for what it is, assault medic class maybe op, but it actually encouraged teamwork where as BF4 nerfed it too much thus discouraging others from even saving you as much. The maps I felt, played much better than BF4, it seems like the map was design first then came the eye candy. Where as BF4 looks more photo/videogenic, but doesn't play as well. I also enjoyed BF3's close quarter dlc it felt like a game within a game, despite the large scaled battles, the mechanics held its own and was tight enough to translate well into small firefights. I had high hopes for the successors that followed, but they failed to impress me, so my love for bf3 grew stronger.

What are some games that started off small or rocky for you, but ended up becoming a lasting memory?

The OP smart pistol in Titanfall turned me away from the game when it came out. Getting killed with a single shot by so many people, people that didn't even have to aim, was just ridiculous. About a year or so later, maybe longer, I read that Respawn nerfed it, so I gave the game another shot. I love it now. It's nicely balanced. Now, it just needs a single player campaign.

This next one ended up being one of my favorite MP games of all time. It's Rainbow Six Vegas 2. When I first got it, there were a lot of people that were obviously cheating. It was just frustrating to play. When I finally decided to give it another chance, I decided to host my own games with Punkbuster enabled. I fell in love with the game. The MP was amazing.

Besides those, I can't really think it of any games that I ultimately changed my mind about. I usually either like a game, or I don't. I'll come back if I think of anymore, though...

I guess CS:GO, I really disliked it at first. But the plays you can make are great. For example this clip of many make the game worth it, that and just mowing down ppl.

singularity one of the most underrated game. dead space took a while to get used to the controls but its one of the best survival horror games ever made.

Total War

I disliked the games because of the chaos but it's just TOO GOOD TO TURN AWAY

Every time I play Deus Ex, it gets better. It does so many things right that games today in my opinion don't do so well on.

H1Z1, much better now that they have split the game into 2 separate games....

Warcraft 3

I disliked the game when it first released
But got more passion for the universe and the game afther playing Wow

I'm reversed with TW. I get obssessed for a week straight turning away from the phone, social media or just anything social during that time span. I tend to burn myself out by the 3rd campaign of each installment.

Another title I just thought of now. Crysis 1 aged pretty well and turned out to be masterpiece after the meh sequels.

@Bikouchu35: Lol I had about 50 hours or so on Medieval 2 within 2 days of buying it

My battles turn out chaotic, for example, a night battle with about 4 minibattles all over the map XD

Civilization V, although I liked it from the beginning, but the DLC's made it even better.
